            Part I -  Electronic Conferences of Jewish Interest

The Partial Directory of Jewish Electronic Services I have been editing
since October 1991 is going now through a major revision.  This area of
Jewish life expanded much in recent months. From an initial list of
some 30 different services we have now more than 117 conferences
(lists) and many other services as well.
Many Israeli lists are included here so as to provide access to relevant
academic and professional communities. In this sense they also have
wider Jewish interest.
This is the first installment of the planned Handbook. Chapters dealing with
Jewish interest information services (gophers and WWW) and with Jewish
libraries catalogs and databases are being prepared.
The additions, corrections and initiatives of our readers concerning
previous editions allowed the present expansion  of this basic guide. Our
readers again invited to send comments, feedback and corrections to:

                   Electronic Conferences of Jewish Interest
                   *****************************************

Several dozens electronic conferences of Jewish interest are described
in the following pages.


1. To subscribe to one of these conferences, i.e. to begin receiving
   the messages which conference members exchange with each other, do
   the following:

   Send to the conference subscription address, in general:
   listserv@someplace.somewhere
   the address of the  machine - listserv software - which runs the
   distribution list of the participants, a message like the one that
   follows:

          SUBscribe <Conference Name> <My First Name> <My Last Name>

   For example:

   For subscribing to Jewishn@bguvm.bgu.ac.il

          send to the address Listserv@bguvm.bgu.ac.il the message:
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
          SUBscribe Jewishnt Berl Shmerl


2. To stop receiving the conference messages send to the same
   subscription address (the listserv) a message like:

          SIGNOFF <Conference Name>

          from the same email address from which you initially
          subscribed to the conference.


3. You can send other messages to the Listserv machine:

         INDEX <Conference Name>

         Will retrieve the index of the archives of the list.

         GET <Filename> <Filetype>

         Will retrieve a file from the archive. Filename Filetype appear
         in the INDEX file you will receive as a result of the previous
         command (INDEX).

         REVIEW <Conference Name>

         Will retrieve the names of all the participants.

4. Only messages you wish all other participants to read should be
   sent to the list itself. In the above mentioned example to the
   address:

         JEWISHNT@bguvm.bgu.ac.il

5. Almost all of these conferences have archiving facilities so  past
   transactions may be retrieved. These archives provide search and
   retrieval functions so you may conduct a search for selected text of
   particular interest. In this sense these archive may be regarded as
   full-text databases.

         Subscription address:

         LISTSERV@YORKVM1

         Purpose:

         IOUDAIOS (Greek for "Jew") is an electronic seminar devoted
         to the exploration of first-century Judaism; its special
         interest is in the writings of Philo of Alexandria and
         Flavius Josephus. The list began as an informal discussion of
         two papers by Robert A. Kraft (Pennsylvania) but quickly
         blossomed into an international forum, with participants in
         North America, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East. The
         Philonic and Josephan corpora are extensive enough that they
         invite all sorts of analysis -- from literary, historical,
         and philosophical perspectives, to name a few. There is also
         considerable interest, among participants, in the  social
         realities  that  lie  behind these texts.  Prospective
         members are  warmly  welcomed.  (The discussion assumes a
         significant background  in  first-century  Judaism  and  also
         the  ability to read Greek.)

         Purpose:

         Jewish-Music exists to spread the word about recordings and
         musicians of Jewish interest, and where to find them. We've
         got a lot of territory to discuss--from the latest Israeli
         synth-pop (Fortis?) to the best of modern Klez (Klezmatics,
         for instance). Personally, I really dig Lebedeff. I really
         dig Shalom Chanoch and Yehuda Poliker and the Ethnix. And I
         really, really dig the Klezmatics. I can live without another
         operatic-style recording of Kol Nidre. I'm hoping that this
         will be a comfortable place to discuss what sounds good or
         bad; who's playing what and when; new recordings that are hot
         (or not) and where to get them.

         Network.

         Today's technology allows us to envision and implement
         projects that a short decade ago were no more than mere
         dreams. One dream that may come true is a computerized
         network used to connect all of the Jewish communities around
         the world.

         * Worlwide Electronic Mail facilities
         * Jewish Directories and Nameservers

         * Electronic newspapers, Bulletin Boards and conferences
         * Access to libraries of software on Jewish subjects
         * Jewish educational services
         * A Jewish Electronic University

         People with interests in these and related areas are invited to
         join the discussion. We expect to be able to enjoy their knowledge,
         accumulated experience and goodwill.

         Subscription address:

         Listserv@israel.nysernet.org

         Purpose:

         KOL-ISHA IS a moderated discussion list available through the
         courtesy of israel.nysernet. We deal with halachic questions
         and issues concerning women's roles in traditional Judaism.
         Kol-Isha encourages Achdut Yisrael (the unity of Israel) and
         we welcome women and men who are members of any group. We
         have only two guide-lines:

         First, we ask that you respect the role of halacha in the
         lives of Orthodox women. For women who are committed to
         Orthodox observance the question of whether halacha is valid
         is a moot point.
         Second, we ask that you contribute to the discussion by
         engaging in the asking of new halachic questions. We accept
         the divinity of Torah and the timelessness of halacha. We
         also believe that times have changed to the point where new
         halachic interpretations are inevitable.

         Purpose:

         The list is a place where Jews from all Jewish movements can
         discuss issues without fear of attacks about the legitimacy
         of their movements.
         The initial goal of the list was to provide a forum for
         discussions concerning issues of relevance to the more
         liberal movements (Reform, Reconstructionist, Conservative).
         Remember, it is acceptable to criticize the position taken by
         a given movement, as long as you word your submission in such
         as way as to not question the validity of that movement as a
         part of Judaism.

         how to respond to missionaries. This list provides the
         necessary refutation information. The list is not closed but
         it is not the proper forum for Hebrew-Christians to use to

         validity of halacha. As there is a fair amount of discussion
         on halachic issues, the list is sometimes refered to as the
         halachic mailing list.

         Purpose:

         Yavneh North America was established to support the Orthodox
         Jewish student on campus. Members will aim to provide
         communal support for observant students in their school
         environment.
         Yavneh expect not only to enrich the lives of observant folks
         already in college, but also to ease the   transition of
         those about to enter school. Those who are undecided as to
         choice if school, and who seek a college offering a vibrant
         Jewish life, can obtain guidance from Yavneh. Others, may
         receive a hand from Yavneh in getting acclimated.
